Jones received a grant of$ 120,000 from
The National Science Foundation to use

fruit fly) during the next three years.

VOL. 66, NO. 6

Undergraduate Institution accepts proposals from professors of science departments in undergraduate institutions.
Jones' proposal was titled "Molecular
Analysis of the Steroid Hormone Inducible Gene E74 in Drosphila."
" I don't apply for these grants
necessarily for myself, but more so for
Bethel students." says Jones. All of the
research will be done at Bethel.
Jones began his study on fruit
flies when he received his fifth grant in
1985." I am very pleased and pleasantly
surprised about this new grant. Competition is severe and the funding is
tight, so we are very fortunate. I am also
looking forward to the continuation of
the research," says Jones.

According to Jones, the major
goal of the research is to have articles of
their research published, so that they
can receive grants for future projects.
The focus of the project is on the activation of steroids on genes for metamorphosis of the fruit fly.
Jones selected five biology
students to assist him in his research.
They will be involved with the analysis
and experimental processes of this
project. Each student must have experience in the molecular area of study.
Molecular Biology is being offered next
semester for those chosen and interested
in future research. The course examines

President Bush Visits Rochester
by Nowell Bjerkaas
President George Bush visited
Rochester on November 2, delivering a
noontime speech toapacked gymnasium
at John Marshall High School, on the
city's northwest side.
Bush'sspeech, which was covered by all major television networks
and news services, began with an extremely partisan message, followed by
anon-partisan, patriotic defense of U.S.
military build-up in the Persian Gulf.
Coming just four days before
the 1990 general election. Bush used the
opportunity to campaign for Republican
candidates Rudy Boschwitz and Ame
Carlson (Carlson won thegovernership
and Boschwitz lost his senate seat in the
Nov. 6 election), both of whom attended
the rally.
With hieh school cheerleaders
and an enormous American flag as his
backdrop, B ush began by criticizing the
Democrats in Congress for the part he
said they had played in the struggle to
pass a national budget. "There is no
higher priority than the budget," the
president said. "Socking the rich would
have raised 40 million dollars from the
working men and women of this coun-
try."
However, he continued," we're"
not making too little; "because of the
liberal Democrats in Washington, we're
spending too much." Bush went on to
praise Boschwitz for helping to hold the
line on "reckless cuts."
He also called the senator a
strong advocate for both sound environmental practices and economic
growth, citing him as one of the reasons
for "a clean-air bill that I can sign."
Bush also claimed that "Democratic liberals packed up" and failed to
pass a bill that would be tougher on
criminals. He said Americans know
that handcuffs belong on the criminals
and not at the police-officers' sides, and
that America needs "a little less sympathy" for criminals and more for victims.
In addition to his praise for
Boschwitz' work in Washington, the
presidentpluggedcurrent governor-elect
Arne Carlson, saying, "We strongly
support Ame Carlson for governor."
The remainder of the president's
speech was devoted to firm criticism of
Saddam Hussein and to the defense of
U.S. involvement in the gulf region.

Football Team Satisfied With Season
Despite Loss
by Amy Lumadue and Amy White
"In a lot of people's minds the
loss at the end of the year was hard to
take, but there's a joy that comes from
working together," stated Assistant
Coach Mike Plinske after the Royals'
disappointing loss to Carleton. With a
few seconds left in the game, Carleton
made "the last big play" to bring the
final score to 31-30. Although the loss
was "hard to swallow," Senior Pete
Haugen said, "the season as a whole was
a great experience. Everyday it was fun
to go to practice, to be fully prepared
every week and just play our best."
Senior Trent Anderson added, "It was
well worth the three years that I played
before!"
Coach Steve Johnson said, "For
this game to be disappointing, you know
the season had to be good...this was one
of the best seasons in a long time.
Junior Jon Eliason said, "I'd
much rather be us and lost than Carleton
and won."
Bethel scored on their initial
possession
in the first
quarter with
a hand-off
to receiver
Greg Peterson, who
then threw it
to receiver
Jack Negen
for the
touchdown,
making the
score 7-6
due to a
missed extra point.
Carleton
came back
scoring a
touchdown on theirnextpossessionfrom
the two yard line making it a 14-6 game.
